"In any case, it is highly desirable that the Central Electoral Commission publishes (reliable) provisional results not only as fast as possible, but also as detailed as possible. Breaking down the results by polling station and making this tabulation available to the voters may considerably contribute to the transparency of election. An important element of transparency is the voters’ and party representatives’ ability to check results protocols issued at polling station level in comparison with the results published by higher level electoral commissions. In the meantime, many Central Election Commissions publish election results broken down by polling station results on their website, a practice which is generally welcomed. "
